Those Words

I woke up this morning with a sharp remembering. I had forgotten.

Once the walls of my bedroom were tessellated thick with books, pictures, paintings, ephemera and words. Once, that now empty space between the picture rail and the ceiling was filled with hand-written quotes I had lovingly gathered, captured, set down.
